Really poor job by Philips.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ive been an avid Hue user for years and was excited for some Bias lighting for my tv which I felt was long overdue but this is just a nightmare of a product. So many HDR cut outs despite swapping hdmi cables and ensuring CEC and Arc is on and unexplained restarts by the sync app which is hard enough to get running and on top of that? The price. Do yourself a favor and go check out the Govee Sync Box instead. Much less hassle and while it may not work AS well as the Phillips it’s much cheaper and does the job. Stay away from this product.

Ambiance Win
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I rated lights 4/5, however the sync box needs a 2-3 star. System works great, however when power goes out, you start setup once again…

Sync Box will complete your Home theater setup
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.OMG WOW - if you have hue lights this is a must. Expensive but worth the money. Amazing light effects that match your movie or tv show. Has 4 hdmi ports and one out to tv so you can sync your lights with movies, tv and gaming!

Hue for the win!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing Hue product. This takes the colors on screen and turns them into a wonderful visual spectacle. I have multiple hue lights around the TV for this reason now and it’s add so much life and character to any movie or game!

Missing High End Featuree
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So this works pretty well if you don't care about high end video. I can confirm that even with two outputs on a receiver this device will cause the whole connection to drop the quality of the HDMI throughout the chain. With the sync connected my devices would no longer recognize HDR properly and a number of streaming apps on the Chromecast downgraded the video quality to HD vs 4k. Definitely does not support Dolby Vision as I tested that with the Irishman. Overall I'm super disappointed and wish hue would just work with TV manufacturers to add some sort of hue support to their apps or something. Going to be searching for some kind of alternative.

Amazingly cool
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this thing. I wish it worked with 4K HDR but besides that it's wonderful. I use it on my TV, PS5, and Apple TV. When it's hooked up to the strip light it makes for an amazing experience.

It's fine
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The box provides better more responsive light syncing than samsung's hue tv app, but this box needs an upgrade for 120hz
